WeChat now supports changing WeChat ID! Can't change yours? Here's a trick to fix it

Now, the latest Android version of WeChat supports changing WeChat ID !

Today, Tencent WeChat team officially announced that the latest Android version of WeChat now supports changing WeChat ID. The entrance is Me>Personal Information>WeChat ID. Users can change their WeChat ID once a year. If the user has customized their WeChat ID in the past year, they can also change it after one year . iOS users will also be able to use this feature soon.

After the announcement, many netizens complained that the change could not be made, and WeChat officials responded by saying, "Please try again later, no need to rush."

According to my personal test, after Android WeChat updates to the latest version (7.0.15), you can make changes by logging out of the current WeChat account and logging in again .

Before making the change, WeChat will remind you: WeChat ID is the only credential of the account and can only be modified once a year.

Then, you will be asked to fill in your current WeChat login password to verify your identity.

After the verification is completed, you can fill in the new WeChat ID, which is limited to 6-20 characters. The official recommendation is to avoid including personal privacy information such as name and birthday.

The following are some frequently asked questions about changing your WeChat ID:

Q1: What are the format requirements for WeChat account settings ?

The WeChat ID must start with a letter and can contain 6-20 digits, letters, underscores, minus signs, or a combination of these.

Q2: What conditions must be met to set up a WeChat account ?

Two conditions need to be met: the WeChat account has not been changed in the past year and the current account has no security risks.

Q3: After changing the WeChat account, will it affect third-party businesses that log in through WeChat authorization?

Won't.

Q4: If I change my WeChat ID, will my friends receive a reminder?

Friends will not receive reminders.

Q5: After I change my WeChat ID, can my friends still search for me using my old WeChat ID?

Friends can only search for you through your current WeChat ID, and cannot search for you through your old WeChat ID.
